How We Met?

For Christmas, 2006, my daughter and husband gave me a dog collar with a note attached that read "Insert dog here". They had decided I had greived the loss of my first dog, Poha, long enough. I needed to give my love to another puppy.

~♥~ Beagle Adopted After Surviving Gas Chamber ~♥~
NEW JERSEY, N.J. (UPI) -- A beagle mix that survived the gas chamber at an Alabama shelter has been adopted by a New Jersey family who said they "can't deny he has a purpose."
Joe Dwyer of Nutley said he and his wife, Geralynn, and daughter, Jenna, brought Daniel the miracle beagle mix home last week and the canine will now be used to fight for laws against gas chambers at animal shelters, The (Newark, N.J.) Star-Ledger reported Wednesday.
"He won't be exploited," Dwyer said. "His life as a part of this family is paramount."
"We can't deny he has a purpose," said Dwyer, a motivational speaker and dog trainer.
Daniel was brought to New Jersey by The Eleventh Hour Rescue of Rockaway, N.J., after he survived being euthanized alongside several other dogs at a Florence, Ala., shelter in September.

Forty Rescued Lab Beagles Have Much To Be Thankful For!
Shannon learned of the Spanish dogs’ plight on Facebook in early November. Through connections, she heard the laboratory was going out of business and was willing to release their dogs to a rescue….if one stepped up quickly. Shannon knew right away that she had to help.
In a whirlwind of outreach, donation requests and volunteer help, Shannon and her team arranged for the dogs to receive their shots and papers in Spain and be ready to board a commercial flight for the 12 hour and 40 minute trip to Los Angeles.
And when they arrive? “We’ll have volunteers and cargo vans waiting at the airport to bring them to my house,” Shannon says. Twenty foster parents stand ready to pick up their new charges and Shannon is confident she’ll have the rest in place soon.
While it’s not hard to find people willing to adopt the dogs she rescues, Shannon says it can be a challenge to find the right homes. “These are special needs dogs,” she says. “They need someone willing to be patient and caring. And, it’s important that there’s another dog living in the home. These dogs have spent their lives in cages; now they need to learn how to just be a dog,” she added.
Shannon interviews and screens each adoptive family personally to find the right match.
For Shannon, the most rewarding part of her work is watching the beagles as they see the sun for the first time, step onto the grass and discover the simple joys of playing with a toy or getting a treat.
“This has been the greatest experience of my life so far,” she says.

My first human dad~Jerry passed away 12/20/2006 and no one else wanted to take me so my now dad (who is dad~Jerry's brother) and mom took me. I love my now dad and he loves me back plus I'm a guys doggie. BOL!!!!
I've also been a DC member since January 4, 2007.
MY FIRST DC BLOG WAS ON 1/04/2007 WHICH SAID:
"SUBJECT: From Rags to Clothes!
My name is Carly and this is my story. When I got my new family, my new mom would not let me in the house. It was about 5 PM when I arrived to my new house and I had to stay in a pickup for a couple hours. She said I had to have a bath first cause I was so filthy & stinky. I lived the homeless style for about a couple years and I wasn't into baths. She took me in about 7 PM to get professionally bathed, hair clipped, and nails clipped. I finally got to go in on a nice clean & soft bed in my new home. Mom even said I smelled really nice. I guess my new mom & dad are proud of me now!"
I am the only doggie of a family of 18 kitties. There are 6 kitties that I'm around all the time inside. One particular one is named Rhoamin 2921 on CC and he is a bit taller and longer than me. He tries to smack me, but he does get in trouble when he's caught!!!! BOL!!!!
I went in to have a simple spay in February 2007 and it turned out to be a major surgery as the vet found mammory tumors on my teats (breasts) so he removed about 2 teats plus on my neck and one one my throat. I now have a few lumps growth, but mom and dad are not going to have them removed at my age. They said I've been thru enough.
I have also been diagnosed with DIABETES March 2008 so now I get insulin shots twice daily. I'm pretty much blind as well. Dad still takes me on several walks per day to potty and xercise.

Breed Warz

Thank you!

Thank you so much for being candid with me!!! What a breath of fresh air! (I feel like I am banging my head against a wall sometimes trying to find a pup.) Hopefully sometime soon I will be able to post pictures almost as adorable as Tess's! : )

Tess is my dream dog!

Tess is so perfect, and you are so close to me!...any chance you breed her? I am looking for a healthy puppy, but I keep finding out the "home breeders" are actually puppy brokers that buy from mills at auctions. (I just discovered the latest guy has a criminal history, including "aggravated battery - physical disfigurement"! Can you believe he is allowed around puppies?) I would REALLY appreciate any help you can provide!!

I'm free! Yup, free from a kennel. Mom was having to put me in their when she left in the mornings or wasn't home and after I came back from Chips house a few days ago she decided to put me on a trial run and let me have free rein of the house while shes been gone. I've passed everyday! Moms keeping fingers crossed I stay a good girl so she doesn't have to put me back in there. Plus I kind of have my own bed now. Mom shuts off two bedrooms and the office, but recently the spare room finally got put together (It was mostly just random boxes of stuff) but now there is a bed in there and a blanket over the comforters and stuff so the kitties and I can sleep on it! We think momma put that bed in their for us, Hehe.
Well, we think our winter is definitely gonna be a cold one this year, its never been this cold in october before, Mom and I can still see our breath when we go out for pictures at 3pm!!! The sun is still out like all the way but its so cold! The sun is gonna set at 6pm tonight! Thats crazy, not used to it being so cold! Moms disappointed she missed like all of fall for pictures of me. She just realized today (shes not very observant sometimes, Bol) that we don't have any trees with leaves in our yard or anything. So we couldn't get any fall pictures anyways! But fall is usually her favorite time to take pictures, but we are thinking Fall just kind of skipped over WA this year! It was super hot in Sept. and then, bam, freezing.
Well, I should have new pictures uploaded soon, Hope your having a nice week! If I don't bark before halloween, Stay safe and have fun!
Licks & Love ♥ Zoey
